crow

Duan Shiyu scratched her hair, brushed the strands from her forehead to the back of her head, closed her eyes and took a nap.The courtiers entered the palace one after another, seeing the haggard Duan Shiyu, they dared not speak.

Ku Tuo reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, everyone is here."

"En." Duan Shiyu slowly opened his eyes, glanced at them, and asked, "Where is Zhisu Neishi, are you here?"

Zhi Su Nei Shi got up and said, "The minister is here."

Duan Shiyu asked: "How is the treasury situation this year?"

Zhi Su Nei Shi said: "The grace of heaven is great, the weather is good this year, the harvest has increased ten times compared to the past, most of the granaries have been filled, and the silk brocade has four times more than in previous years."

"En." Duan Shiyu said, "Has Tingwei come?"

Yao Lihua got up and said, "The minister is here."

"Yeah." Duan Shiyu asked: "I asked you to check, did you check everything?"

Yao Lihua took out a silk book from her sleeve, and said: "I have found out that the land under the city root was occupied by Lord Qi..."

Duan Shiyu raised his hand, interrupted her, and said: "There is an armory at the root of the city. If you want that piece of land, you have to ask the Shaofu in advance. How can you just take it if you say so?"

Yao Lihua shook the silk book in his hand, and said: "This is what I want to talk about. In April of the second year of the reconstruction of the Shaofu, Liu Fangyue received a night pearl worth 5 taels of gold to seek a casual job for others. In July, the servant Parents and children are imprisoned, Shaofu Liu Fangyue accepts [-] acres of fertile land, bribes the jailer, and releases the prisoner privately..."

Shaofu Liu Fangyue was sweating profusely, knelt on the futon and dared not make a sound.

Duan Shiyu raised his hand to interrupt Yao Lihua, looked at Shaofu Liu Fangyue, and asked, "Is there such a thing?"

The Shaofu quickly climbed out and shouted: "Your Majesty has learned from you, I have been wronged."

Duan Shiyu knocked on the imperial case, and muttered: "We are also Jiuqing, why does the eunuch still ask the Shaofu to do something?"

Yao Lihua said: "There is one more thing. The tyrant named Liu is domineering in Beijing and bought a house privately." Yao Lihua unfolded another silk script and said: "Liu Gou, Lord Anle, raped and killed the maid at home, and waited for Liu Wu to drive a carriage to trample two people in the city to death. People, trampled and wounded three people..."

"All right, all right." Duan Shiyu said, "I'll leave this matter to you."

Prime Minister Xiao Zhongling said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's not right."

Duan Shiyu asked: "What's wrong?"

Xiao Zhongling said: "The Empress Dowager...it's hard to explain."

"Oh oh, yes." Duan Shiyu pointed to Yao Lihua, and said, "Leave these to me, and let Prime Minister Dalkin handle this matter."

Darkin's eyes widened, in a dilemma.

Duan Shiyu pointed at Dalkin, snapped his fingers, and said, "Let me handle it well, let's disperse the court."

…………

Yao Lihua frowned and walked out of Xingle Palace.

Duan Ling chased after her, patted her on the shoulder, and asked, "Master Ting Wei, why are you unhappy?"

A hint of doubt flashed across Yao Lihua's cold face, and she said, "Our Ting Wei should take care of this matter, why leave it to the Prime Minister?"

Duan Ling said: "What's wrong?"

Yao Lihua looked around and said nothing.Duan Ling held her until both of them left the palace, pulled her into the carriage, and said, "Let's talk now."

Yao Lihua thought for a while, and said: "Dalkin himself is not clean, His Majesty asked me to check his family background, but specifically asked me not to reveal it today."

Duan Ling curled her lips and said, "I'll let you talk about it when the time comes. Shall I go for a drink?"

Yao Lihua said: "No."

"Let's go." Duan Ling held Yao Lihua's hand and said, "I know there is a wine shop, and his flower brewing is pretty good."

Higurashi

The handling of Liu Haoqiang's incident was posted in the neighborhood, and the people all applauded and praised the emperor.

The Empress Dowager of the Promise Palace slapped the table and shouted: "I'm still alive! He dares to treat the Liu family like this! When I die, won't he want to turn the world upside down!"

Empress Dowager Zhao lowered her head, not daring to speak.

The Empress Dowager asked, "Who is in charge of this matter?"

Empress Dowager Zhao said: "I heard that it is Prime Minister Dalkin..."

"Hmph, what a good son you have raised!" The Empress Dowager pointed to the Empress Dowager Zhao, and said, "The wings are hard!"

Queen Mother Zhao lowered her head even lower.

The Empress Dowager sighed and said, "What's going on this year, you've been targeting the old man everywhere, tell me, tell me, what's going on."

Empress Dowager Zhao raised her eyes: "Probably, it's because..."

The Empress Dowager Zhao faltered, and the Empress Dowager frowned and asked, "Because of what?"

"Because he has, there is nothing for the Empress Dowager to use as a handle." The Empress Dowager Zhao said.

The Empress Dowager raised her eyebrows, remained silent for a long time, and asked, "What do you mean, shouldn't you force that child to leave?"

Empress Dowager Zhao pursed her lips and remained silent.

The Empress Dowager said helplessly: "But he is with that man all day long, and he is not in the harem. I just want him to have an heir!"

The Empress Dowager Zhao said: "The Empress Dowager is right."

"right?"

Empress Dowager Zhao said: "It's just that the timing is not right, it's just that the emperor was still interested in that child at that time..."

"But listen, listen to what he said at that time." The empress dowager rubbed her brows: "He said he was going to kill the emperor."

Queen Mother Zhao: "..."

The Empress Dowager thought for a while and asked, "Why don't you bring that child back?"

"Listen to the Empress Dowager."

Choushi Shouyang Palace

Duan Shiyu put the memorial on a desk next to him.

Ku Tuo walked over and whispered, "Your Majesty, it's time to rest."

"Don't worry." Duan Shiyu stood up after watching the playing, walked to the chessboard, sat down, pinched a black stone, and then pinched a white stone, put them on the chessboard one by one, and asked, "What do you think?"

Empress Dowager Zhao walked into Shouyang Palace, Kutuo opened her mouth, Empress Dowager Zhao waved her hand, walked to the chessboard, sat down, and said, "Your son still not asleep?"

Duan Shiyu lowered his head and said, "I can't sleep."

Empress Dowager Zhao asked, "Is it about Mr. Zhang Ziwen?"

Duan Shiyu raised his eyes and asked: "My son needs an inner court who is only loyal to himself, who does mother think is suitable to be in charge of this matter?"

Empress Dowager Zhao said: "Mother doesn't understand politics."

Duan Shiyu dropped a black stone, then dropped a white stone, and said, "Let's say one."

"Ah."

"Ji Qingyun."

Empress Dowager Zhao looked at Duan Shiyu, thought for a while, and said, "Didn't he resign?"

"Winter is over, he should have come back long ago." Duan Shiyu said: "It's just that he doesn't want to go back, because Yu Chiyuan won't go back, and Yu Chiyuan won't go back because he doesn't dare to go back, and when he comes back, he will be...forced to marry. "

Empress Dowager Zhao said: "I came here to tell you..."

"The Empress Dowager only thinks about her Liu family." Duan Shiyu interrupted the Empress Dowager Zhao.

The Empress Dowager Zhao stood up and said, "I came here to tell you that the Empress Dowager has posted a notice asking for that Zhang Ziwen to return to the palace."

"..." Duan Shiyu's hand landed in the air, paused, landed on the chessboard, and said, "I don't miss him anymore."

京都

Zhang Ziwen was riding on the horse, while Mo Yu and Luo Sha followed behind with a cart full of darts.

Kyoto is densely populated, and the carriage was moving very slowly. Mo Yu looked around and saw a group of people crowded on the bulletin board. He leaned over and saw a missing person notice posted on the bulletin board.

"A reward of 5 taels of silver...such a big deal." Mo Yu stared at the portrait for a long time, then cheered, and shouted: "Brother! Come and see, this person looks like you!!"

Zhang Ziwen trembled all over, and shouted: "Don't look, run!"

As soon as his words fell, the group of people turned their heads and saw Zhang Ziwen, and one of them shouted, "Isn't this the person on the notice!!"

Speaking of which, the group of people suddenly flocked to Zhang Ziwen.

"Drive!!" Zhang Ziwen hurriedly urged the horse forward, and Mo Yu and Luo Sha quickly followed the drag racing.

The three of them were chased by the crowd all over the capital, and they were chased all the way to the outskirts, but there were still two people who caught up, one was a little-known thief, and the other was Zhang Lun from Duansi Prefecture.

Zhang Ziwen stopped, looked at the two people, and said to Mo Yu, "Get rid of that ugly one."

The thief spat, saying that he would take Zhang Ziwen to pay back the money, and then attacked Zhang Ziwen bit by bit.

Mo Yu stepped forward to block the thief, and knocked the thief to the ground with just one move.

Zhang Ziwen said: "Don't hurt his life."

Mo Yu snorted fiercely, and slapped the thief's face, the thief rolled his eyes instantly and passed out.

Zhang Ziwen turned his horse's head, looked at Zhang Lun, and asked, "Zhang Sifu, don't come here safely."

Zhang Lun remained calm, glanced at the thief, and said flatly: "Please come back with me."

Mo Yu was not convinced: "Are you officials so greedy for money?"

Zhang Lun said: "It is my duty to bring him back to the palace."

Mo Yu said coldly: "Why don't you ask the person in the palace to come and see my senior brother?"

Zhang Lun's face changed, as if he felt that Mo Yu's words were unreasonable. He cupped his fists and said, "I'm offended!" in his arms.Mo Yu didn't expect Zhang Lun to move so fast, a negligence let Zhang Ziwen fall into his hands, he scolded his mother, and went straight to Zhang Lun, with a fatal move.

After two or three strokes, Zhang Lun was slapped on the shoulder by Mo Yu's palm, and his arm was immediately dislocated. He had to let go of Zhang Ziwen, turned over and jumped out, keeping a distance from this powerful boy in black.

Luo Sha caught Zhang Ziwen and punched Mo Yu's chest.Mo Yu stared wide-eyed, kicked Luo Shi, and shouted: "You shameless foreigner! How dare you sneak up on your grandpa!"

Luo Sha pushed Zhang Ziwen to Mo Yu, rubbed his stomach, and said with a silly smile, "I just want to see if I have improved."

"Hmph!" Mo Yu caught Zhang Ziwen and stared at Zhang Lun with killing intent in his eyes.

Zhang Ziwen was a little dizzy, he shook his head, grabbed Mo Yu, and said, "Don't hurt him."

Mo Yu stopped, pointed at Zhang Lun, and said, "Tell the man in the palace, unless he comes here in person, otherwise, don't expect me to hand over my brother to him."

Zhang Lun covered his shoulders, pulled back his dislocated arm, stared at Zhang Ziwen, and said, "Your Majesty thought you were forced to leave by the Empress Dowager, and you have been against the Empress Dowager, and now you are here to punish Prince Qi."

Zhang Ziwen paused when he got on the horse, he turned around and looked at Zhang Lun, and asked, "Isn't Lord Qi greedy enough?"

Zhang Lun stood up staggeringly, and said, "Your Majesty wants to cut down the feudal clan and drive Prince Qi out of the capital."

"What's with me?"

Zhang Lun gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty is able to sit in this position without any trouble, thanks to Prince Qi. Now that Prince Qi is going to be punished, isn't this killing the donkey?"

Zhang Ziwen snorted, got on his horse, turned the horse's head, and said, "Your Majesty didn't find fault with Lord Qi because of me, and he didn't want to trouble Lord Qi. He wanted to weaken the power of the Liu family. Tell Qi My lord, as long as he restrains his hands and feet now, he will be able to live to death safe and sound."

Zhang Lun looked around, thinking about Zhang Ziwen's words.

At that time, Zhang Ziwen had already slipped far away, and then entered the capital again.

With Mo Yu and Luo Sha present, no one could get close to Zhang Ziwen's body. The people in the capital watched large sums of money dangling in front of them, but they dared not reach out to take them.
